Wilson were called. On examina- tion it was found that Mrs. Brown had suffered a fractured skull and terrible internal injuries, and that death had heen instantaneous, Miss Appleton was suffering from severe cuts and bruises and from shock. She was taken to the Oshawa General Hospital to which she will be confined for a few days. Mrs, Prior suffered a nervous breakdown when advised of the acci- dent and she too was taken to the hospital for treatment. Went For Drive When the accident occurred Mrs, Brown was lightly clad and wearing a Kimona. Mr, Ward accompanied hy Miss Appleton and Mr, Levy motored from Toronto late yesterday cvening and did not reach "The House That Jack Built" where Mrs. Brown was spending the night with her sister un- til after eleven o'clock, Mrs, Brown had retired but recognizer her friends she slipped on her kimona and went ogt to talk to them. During the con- versation, it is understood that the de cision to go for a short drive was rea ched and it was on the return from this that the accident took place, After giving what assistance they could the trio from Toronto returned to their homes. In conversation with The Times gver the telephone this af- ternoon Detective Ward refused tc give any particulars concerning the affair other than that he had heen sus pended from the Toronto police force pending an investigation into the whole occurrence, Mr. Ward affirmed that it was a fact, Prusky Not Driving Car David Prusky, 286 George street Peterboro, who was the owner of the death dealing car and who was visit- ing Mr. and Mrs. Walter Green ha: been able to satisfy the police that he was not driving his car, nor in it wher the accident happened. The tragedy togk place about one o'clock this morn- ing and the Prusky car 'was taken about eleven o'clock, police state. It is a curious coincident that Mr. Prus- ky's car was stolen the night previous and was located by Toronto police Only yesterday morning Mr. Prusky had recovered the car at No. 2 police station in Toronto where it had been taken by the police who found it. A second and sad coincidence in con- nection with the happennig is that it was the second serious 'motor accident in wheih Mrs. Brown had been a vic- tim in two weeks. At the time of her death she was convalescing from in- juries received in a motor accident * which occurred north of Toronto and as a result if which she had been con- fined in the Toronto General Hospital for a week. Mrs. Brown's given names were Nel- lie and Catherine but she preferred Helen and was generally known as Mrs. Helen Brown. She was in her forty-fourth year and was the daugh- ter of Mrs. Wilcox, 674 Simcoe street south, and of the late W. H. Wilcox of Oshawa whose death occurred two years ago. She was born in Bowman- ville and after living there with her parents for a short time went with them to the United States where she lived for some years. For many years she. has made her home with her mother having lived with her in Wood- stock, Ontario and in Oshawa since 1914. Recently she was away on an extended visit to Detroit. Besides her mother she leaves an adopted daughter, Miss Alma France of Cincinnati, Ohio, one brother H. S Vilcox of Oshawa, and two sisters Mrs. IL. M. Prior, Oshawa and Mrs. Fred Cook of Detroit. Funeral arran- gements have not vet been completed' Yesterday Mrs. Brown went to sta) for a short time with her sister Mrs Prior who needed her assistance in her business which was unusually busy with the holiday season at its height. Early in the evening she had been at her mother's home and Mrs. Wilcox last heard from her at eleven o'clock when she phoned to say that she was spending the night with her sister.

AS JAPANESE SHIPS CRASH One Destroyer Sunk With a Loss of 90 Men and Officers (Oable Service To The Times By Canadian Press) London, Aug. 256.--One hundredy and twenty-nine lives are feared to have been lost in two collisions of warships during manoeuveours otf | the Japanese naval port of Matzuru | last night, says a Tokyo despatch te Reuters. One destroyer sank and another was damaged, The news received by the Navy Department at Tokyo. the despatch adds, was that the Japanese cruiser Jintsu collided with the destroyer Warabl in the darkness. The de- stroyer sank in fifteen minutes with a loss of ninety men and petty of- ficers and twelve officers. There were only 22 survivors of the whole ship's company. The Jintsu's bows were badly damaged and she was towed into port, About the same time, the cruiser Naki collided with the destroyer Ashi] cutting through her after. part, which resulted in the loss of #9 other men, Naki was not serious- ly, damaged and proceeded to port after temporary repairs, but Ashi was towed in, COLLISION OCCURS ON HARMONY BRIDGE One Car 'Badly Damaged While Occupants Receive Minor Injuries A Pontiac coupe driven .by Mr. | W.

Dr. McDonald took her and another lady friend besides Mrs. Chasezewski and her two children to their homes after a little atten- tion. No reason for the accident could be given since nothing was on the road hesides the two cars, and Mr. Evans seems to have been well in his own territory of the highway. Opinion was expressed that Mr. Chasezewski was in the wrong. Mr. Evans had purchased his car brand new only three months ago.
